A surge in support for two parties – Podemos and Ciudadanos – ahead of the Spanish general election later this year has led some commentators to ask whether Spain’s two party system, which has traditionally been dominated by the centre-left PSOE and centre-right People’s Party, is coming to an end. Alejandro Quiroga writes on how support for the parties sits following parliamentary elections in Andalusia on 22 March 2015. He argues that while municipal and regional elections in May 2015 will give a better idea of how the general election might go, it remains far from clear that the era of two party politics is finished in Spain.
